Pre Fourth of July Fun

The kids and I headed up to Hoodsport before everyone else and on the way we hit up the zoo. The kids had a blast. It's so nice to be a bit less reliant on nap schedule - we can push Liam a bit longer and some days can even go without a nap. It had been a long time since we had gone to the zoo and the kids were so happy to be there.
Love this girl so much!

They had a lot of fun doing this slide together

Instead of crawling through the tunnel....I find my kids snuggling together...




The best picture I could get of the 2 of them together

This girl has the most infectious laugh

The next day, we headed up to staircase to get in a hike. Wasn't sure how long Liam would make it but he refused to go in the back pack and walked the entire thing. Success!


The hike was beautiful. With the kids the age they are, I feel like we actually get to enjoy the views. 




They made it!



Towards the end, we had to have a bit of a dance party to motivate ourselves to keep going.

Introducing.....Callie Lynn Graham

Our baby girl has finally come to join our family! Callie was born on August 10th at 6:34 pm., weighing in at 7 pounds 1 ounce and measuring 19.5 inches long. She is a absolute delight and Preston and I can't seem to get enough of her. Although the laboring went quickly, the delivery proved a bit trickier for me and we ended up needing to deliver by C-section. Callie was extremely healthy and was ready to leave the hospital even before I was! Due to a few complications, Preston, Callie, and I ended up staying at the hospital for 5 days. Luckily Preston has so much time off of work - don't know what we would have done if he needed to go back after a week. We can't seem to say enough positive things about the nursing staff at St. Joseph's hospital. They were amazing! Although it was not fun staying at the hospital that long (especially since we only packed our bag for one night) we got a lot of extra help with nursing and overall care of Callie. Both Preston and Call...

Sun River 2018

For mid winter break, we headed up to Sun River for the week. As always, it did not disappoint! The kids had a blast spending the week with Grandma and Grandpa, all their cousins, skiing, and playing in the snow. This year we started with no snow on the ground and ended with a blizzard that made driving home very tricky. Liam stayed home with Grandma while Callie and I skied. Although it is always hard to be left behind, he loves his Grandma so much and they had an absolute blast together. I'm also realizing that she took all the pictures so I have very few with her...major bummer! We celebrated these 2 boys on this trip.  When there is this many kids, you not only take over the whole run but there it is also very difficult to figure out which way to go.... Grandpa and his gang Pretty soon we won't all fit on one couch. Unfortunately our sister/dad ski day did not go as planned. Sarah took a spill the day before and was not able to ski with us for ...
